But the investigative journalists from 404 Media report thatthe tool has also been used for months by members of the public, with many making videos marveling at the technology, and some asking for help with stalking specific women. Now GeoSpy has closed off public access to the tool, after 404 Media asked him for a comment.
Hackers were able to gain access to camera feeds from Verkada, a tech company that specializes in video security and physical access control, to demonstrate how prevalent surveillance is, reports say. It is also a metaphor used to illustrate surveillance technology. This isn’t Verkada’s first bout with negative publicity.
Researchers spotted a macOS version of the LightSpy surveillance framework that has been active in the wild since at least January 2024. LightSpy can steal files from multiple popular applications like Telegram, QQ, and WeChat, as well as personal documents and media stored on the device.

I highly recommend reading Zuboff’s New York Times Book of the Year, The Age of Surveillance Capitalism: The Fight for A Human Future At the New Frontier of Power as well as viewing Rifkin’s riveting speech, The Third Industrial Revolution: A Radical New Sharing Economy.
A creative avenue for threat actors is to expand their surveillance efforts to include devices such as smart home cameras, connected car systems and beyond. It will not be limited to critical infrastructure, government sectors or defense companies across the globe; media organizations will also increasingly be at risk.
See translation Will buy 0day/1day RCE in IoT Escrow See translation Hi, I want to buy IoT exploits with devices located in Korea Any architecture There are also offers to purchase and sell IoT malware on dark web forums, often packaged with infrastructure and supporting utilities.

A week after it landed with a curious (and most likely spurious) thud, Zuckerberg’s announcement about a new tack on consumer privacy still has the feel of an unexpected message from some parallel universe where surveillance (commercial and/or spycraft) isn’t the new normal.
Start with business applications that currently lack enhanced protection or have inefficient security architectures in front of them. The post Jumpstart your adoption of Zero Trust with these three steps appeared first on SC Media. Identify new apps that do not use legacy remote access.
Zero Trust architecture allows users full access only to the bare minimum they need to perform their jobs. There's social media monitoring of threats, personnel vulnerabilities, digital footprint, other risk. Technical surveillance countermeasures are an important tool in the fight to keep executives safe.
These vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the device and steal sensitive information, such as video footage, potentially turning the feeder into a surveillance tool.
I work at a Fortune 100 Media and Entertainment company operating within the Information Security Architecture and Engineering group on the Cloud Security Services team.

Cyber Command. This omission continues to allow warrantless access to U.S.
It was for 1000s of compromised, Internet of Things, enabled devices, such as surveillance cameras, residential gateways, internet connected printers, and even in home baby monitors these devices themselves are often thought of as not having much in the way of resources, and really they don't have many computing resources.
The second law we talked about is the Digital Millennium Copyright Act or DMCA, the DMCA was written in the 1990s and updated in the early 2000s I believe, and it's meant to prevent pirating of DVDs and other media. But some of the older protocols which many devices will speak by default as, again, kind of a lowest common syntax.

FinSpy, also known as FinFisher or Wingbird , is an infamous surveillance toolset. TeamViewer, VLC Media Player, WinRAR) as well as portable applications. The 32-bit Trojan Loader, which is launched regardless of the victim machine architecture, checks if it is running on a 64-bit system. Trojanized applications. Windows only).
This strategic shift signals its intent to intensify its surveillance capabilities and expand its range of targets. The threat actor tricks job seekers on social media into opening malicious apps for fake job interviews. Lazarus uses Trojanized apps, especially backdoored VNC apps, to access enterprise systems.
A multi-hop architecture is preferable for some applications because of its added security (packets are re-encrypted for each hop), but it can introduce latency. Zero Trust Architecture and Privileged Access Management: VPNs allow users into the perimeter of a business system. Each server-to-server connection is called a “hop.”
Find out what Daniel looks for and how he does digital forensics using social media and other open source resources. While I produced this episode, a 21 year old Massachusetts National Guard airman is alleged to have photographed and distributed copies of classified US Military material on Discord, a social media site. You find clues.
Social media will become even more of a cesspool of AI and human-created garbage.” Ricardo Villadiego, founder & CEO of Lumu , expects “a significant shift towards adopting models based on passwordless architectures like Google Passkeys as the dominant authentication method to combat phishing and scam campaigns.
Social engineering tactics such as phishing will not only remain prevalent but evolve as attackers leverage AI to craft highly personalised attacks (spear phishing and whaling) , mimicking a victim’s tone or referencing contextual details with alarming accuracy using data from social media, public records, and other sources.
government has already imposed new restrictions on intrusion software, surveillance tools, and AI-driven security technologies, making it harder for companies to collaborate on global cybersecurity research. Beyond tariffs, export restrictions on cybersecurity tools and software are tightening. RELATED: AI Diffusion Rule to Protect U.S.
